Nick Foles Named the Starter for the Eagles

It's official: Nick Foles is now the Philadelphia Eagles starting quarterback in place of the injury-prone Michael Vick, who has been out over a month with hamstring problems.

After a three-game winning streak and a record tying seven-touchdown performance, Foles was named the starter for the 6-5 Eagles, who are tied with the Dallas Cowboys for first in the NFC East, by coach Chip Kelly, who met with the two on Tuesday.
